Do not overwrite the database default value

When a new database record has a column that is set to its database
default value, the "#{attribute}_changed?" method returns false,
which causes default_value_for to overwrite the database default.

This commit changes this behavior to not overwrite when the column
is being set by the initialization attributes.
